WAAA! Short chapter attack! Run away! No, I'm kidding… okay, I'm sorry, but I just need to do this chapter short, don't worry, I'll make sure chapter 9 will be longer, I promise, I really do… and with more A/J fluffiness, lots of it, I promise, really! Well, message to my reviewers:

dada-grl: Thanks so much! I will!

Identity99: Lol, I was GOING to put that the Goblins ran out of the Giraffe and captured them, but I forgot to add that, sorry, lol! (BTW, the reviewer called Maddi-Linka, she gave me the idea about Giraffe's, she helped me make that poem My Love is, too!

Identity99: I know, don't worry, I'll get you some more soon! Don't fret! Hopefully I'll have this done before the summer ends, or else, it'll take me even longer! And I really don't want that! •worried look• wish me luck!

Maddi-Linka AKA Trisha: Well, FYI, genius, you weren't online, how was I supposed to tell you! Anyway, I'm glad you liked it, you might not like this Chapter all that much, but whatever, enjoy…

And, of course, here it is; chapter 8 of my first ever Artemis Fowl fic…

Chapter 8

§§§§

Artemis and Juliet followed Levinia to a dark room. She led them to a puddle-looking hole. She took the remote form earlier and a small, barely two-seater, submarine appeared there.

"The Sub 2056, one of the newest," then she muttered, "and cheapest, submarines in the fairy world…"

"Interesting," Artemis had to admit.

Juliet elbowed him angrily and he shrugged.

"And…" Levinia snapped her fingers and two Goblins brought in diving suits, "these are for you, when you find the Golden Jewel. The only thing that I know is that it's hidden in the depths of one of the canals of Venice… remember, if you don't return with the Jewel by tomorrow, I will fear greatly for Butler and the Fowls…"

§§§§

Foaly and Root watched as the Goblins pushed Juliet and Artemis into the Sub 2056. (Holly had placed the camera in Juliet's back pocket.) Then they threw the suits in with them.

"Good luck…" Levinia grinned evilly, "It'll be a bit… icy…"

"But how are we supposed to—" But before Juliet could continue, Levinia's guards had locked the top closed and sent then down into the water.

As Juliet sat down, all Foaly and Root could see was darkness. Then the camera was pulled out and Juliet placed it carefully in front of the submarine, so Foaly and Root could see what she and Artemis were seeing.

§§§§

"Well, Artemis, what do we do now?" Juliet sat back, "none of us know how to drive this thing…"

"That's where you're wrong Juliet," Artemis grabbed the controls, observing them closely, "I've already read a manual on driving an object of this significance, human version or not, I knew it would be helpful in some circumstances…"

Juliet had to laugh, "Oh, Artemis, you surprise me every time!"

Artemis grinned slightly and started the Sub 2056.

"Blast off," he muttered.

I know, dumb cliffy for the fic, but I couldn't come up with anything else, anyway, I promise, chapter 9 will have more action and A/J fluffiness ;)!
